👉 A fronton in mathematics is a geometric object that represents an element of a vector space. It's defined as a linear transformation from a vector space to itself, where each component of the vector corresponds to a point on the plane representing the coordinate axes. Frontons are used in topology and geometry to define subsets of Euclidean space.
For example, if we have a vector space over some field F (e.g., real or complex numbers), a fronton is an element f that satisfies:
